How to Play Gold Lotto?
Whether you are playing the Saturday, Monday or Wednesday Gold Lotto, one thing is certain; the ease and simplicity of the game. Even for amateurs, playing Gold Lotto is not as difficult as other lottery games.
Picking of Tickets
This is the first stage in playing Gold Lotto! You can only win if you have a ticket. There are several dynamics that you must consider when picking tickets for Gold Lotto.
In case you are playing for the first time or you are an amateur in Gold Lotto, you can use QuickPicks. This is where random numbers are generated for you instead of doing your own manual picking. QuickPicks are available in different sizes as explained below:
- REGULAR QuickPick – This is for 12 Games
- SUPER QuickPick – This caters for 18 Games
- MEGA QuickPick – This gives you an opportunity to play 24 Games
- JUMBO QuickPick – This is for 36 Games
- MAXI QuickPick – This random generated set is the greatest QuickPick and caters for 50 Games
Apart from QuickPicks, you can mark your favorite numbers in a coupon. This is particularly applicable where you have got a set of numbers which are so dear to you and mean more when you play them on the Gold Lotto. All you need to do is to get a Gold lotto coupon from your dealer or select your numbers online. Thereafter, mark six numbers in every game panel and play 4 to 18 game panels.
Gold Lotto System Entries
By design, a system entry gives you a chance to play many numbers in every game. This enhances your chances of winning. Take for instance, to win Division 1 in the Australia Gold Lotto, all your 6 ticket numbers must tally with the numbers drawn. If you want to enhance the chance of winning in Division 1, you could decide to play a system 9 where you choose 9 numbers for the game instead of the normal six. Effectively, this gives you 84 equivalent games.
To get a system entry, get a Gold lotto coupon at your dealer or selected your numbers online and mark seven to twenty numbers in every game panel. For a system 9 entry, you will mark nine numbers. On the QuickPick, play anything between 1 and 50 games while on a marked coupon play 1 to 18 games. Thereafter, mark the system/pick checkbox on the coupon and when buying online, you need to select this option.
You must play a minimum of 2 System 7 QuickPick entries for Saturday & Monday and Wednesday Gold Lotto.
Top Up
Whether you are playing system, pick entry or standard you need to play as many games as possible so as to increase your chances of winning. If you find yourself in a situation where you have a few game panels and you would like to play a much bigger entry, you can request a top up and the remaining game panels will be randomly generated as standard games for you up to 50 games. Just inform your retailer of the number of games you would like. In case you are buying online, you can select the 'QuickPick un-filled games' or 'QuickPick row' options.
If you are going for holidays out of town and you would love to play Gold Lotto, you can opt for multi-week entries. This allows you to play the same set of numbers in your chosen Gold lotto game for a duration of 2 to 10 weeks at a time.
